We depart early immediately after breakfast. It is sunny but very windy and we climb the steep spur up to Mt Madison. It is almost a razor back ridge and we enjoy the views which extend right across the valleys. A steep descent off Mt Madison, and we arrive at the campsite at lunch time - we know Scatters is fit - but we could not have come this far yesterday. Another couple of hours and we arrive at Pinkham Notch - a large settlement - visitor information, shop with accommodation and restaurant. We eat and then decide to start along the trail to find a bush camp next to the creek.
We find a lovely sheltered tent site and then sleep away the rest of the afternoon. What a treat!
